I used to be overly sensitive. When I married my current, wonderful Ol’ Curmudgeon, he helped me “get over” myself. One of his observations was, “Do you really think that all these people are deliberately trying to hurt you? That they are spending that much of their energy on you? And if so, ‘Why?’”
That jerked me up right fast. Now? Now I simply assume people have worded things awkwardly, or that the slight was unintentional. It is so much easier to believe this and to act as if it were so. Then, if the person really is trying to insult me, he will ensure I will know it later. Funny thing, that’s only happened about 2 times in the last 31 years. Hmmmmm. Do you think Someone is trying to Tell me something?

Denise, how fitting and timely is this post. . . we are dealing with some “sensitive” issues right now in our family and feelings are hurt. . . and I’m caught in the middle. I’ll email you later! Thank you for this. I needed your thoughts and words today.
